Master Image 3D is the new generation of entertainment, with Crisp clear images and the highest colour fidelity producing superior image quality. The images are so lifelike you feel like you’ve stepped inside the movie.

Master Image adds depth that puts you in the thick of the action, whether you’re taking a voyage through an undiscovered land or dodging objects that seem to fly into the theatre. Master Image is 100% digital so it delivers a stunningly realistic and fully immersive entertainment experience every time.

Unlike the old days of cardboard glasses, Master Image 3D glasses look like sunglasses, can be reused and are designed to comfortably fit over your prescription eyewear.

At Hawera Cinemas we also have the brand new format High Frame Rate 3D (HFR 3D). HFR 3D represents a technological advancement in the motion picture experience. This innovative format presents the picture in 48 frames per second (fps), which is closer to what the human eye actually sees. This is twice the rate of the standard 24 fps, which is the current format in cinemas worldwide.

With 48 fps / HFR 3D Blurry, incoherent action scenes are Gone. Now you can see every sword swing, rain droplet, and flickering flame with crystal clarity. You will be mesmerized by the detail, it’s amazing. Don’t just watch a movie; experience a new dimension of entertainment at Hawera Cinemas.
